[For Sherlock, it's too personal. If he is here and John is here and Moriarty is here... There is only one priority: Eliminate the threat Moriarty represents.
Whatever the cost.
...In another time-- In another life, Sherlock Holmes would have simply presumed that one of those bedrooms was for him. But he's intelligent enough to know how much he changed things. He jumped off a building. He made John watch. He used John for a singular purpose: to convince the world that he was dead. Because if John Watson believed it, no one else would question it.
He'd called himself a fraud. He'd insisted it was a magic trick. And now he was face-to-face with one of the few people he'd never planned on letting know anything about all of this.
He knew there would be consequences. No matter how much he'd like to pretend there wouldn't be. So he did not assume John would share his flat.]
Then I need to see someone about letting one. The people in charge must have my wallet. I suppose they'll take the necessary payment from one of the cards.
